Today is the day when the list of academicians is announced. Many unrelated people come to join in the fun and gather in a circle in the middle.

The festive procession, with music and drums, stopped here, bringing the atmosphere to a climax.

"Oh, I originally came here to see the results, but I didn't expect there would be such a commotion." Wang Ze gently waved the fan in his hand, with an expression of anticipation: "I don't know which rich family dared to come so blatantly to show off to my son-in-law. After all, he is an official. If the two sides don't get along well, maybe the matter will be brought to the government, and then it will be a big deal."

Wang Ye also came over to join in the fun: "Anyone who has the guts to come here and arrest a son-in-law must be a wealthy and influential person in this city. But our Wang family is not bad either. We have officials and are rich. We shouldn't be arrested for no reason."

A few people were chatting and laughing nearby when they saw a gorgeously dressed woman walk out of a sedan chair in the team and walk towards them with a happy face.

"Hello, fellow villagers and scholars. I am the famous matchmaker Wang in the city. You must have heard of me. Most of the marriages in the surrounding areas were arranged by me." She shook the big red handkerchief in her hand, covered her mouth and smiled.

"All the newly-qualified scholars, if you have set your sights on a girl from a certain family, please tell me. I guarantee you will find her and we will find a good match..."

As he spoke, a manager and matchmaker Wang came towards Yun Jing.

Seeing this, the crowd immediately became excited.

"Oh my god, I don't know which company's manager this is, but he actually attacked the top of the list directly."

"But I heard that Yun Jing is just a villager. If she can become the son-in-law of a wealthy man in the city, regardless of whether she can pass the imperial examination or not, she will be guaranteed to have food and clothing for the rest of her life."

"Hearing what you said, it does make sense. Maybe after marrying a beautiful bride, you won't even need to take the exam anymore."

"..."

When people talked about this, there were all kinds of expressions of watching a show in their eyes, especially the person who failed the exam, whose eyes were full of envy.

Wang Ye was also incredulous. "No, whose family is this? How dare they rush in so recklessly? They didn't even ask Madam Yun for her opinion, and just wanted to take the person away directly."

Wang Ze sneered, "I guess they must have inquired about Brother Yun's family affairs before they came. Knowing that they've been farmers for generations, they thought they could manipulate him just because he was an ordinary family and got the top scorer. They actually wanted to take him away. We are here, and even if my godmother wasn't here, we can't just watch this happen... Damn, who the hell is pushing me? Do you know who I am?"

Before he could step forward and speak, he was pushed away by two strong servants.

Lai Fu saw this and quickly went over to protect his young master: "Young Master, these people are really looking down on you. Are you okay? Let me see if you're hurt."

Just when they were distracted, a group of people had surrounded Yun Jing and surrounded him, and then the matchmaker and the manager walked forward.

"Oh, this Mr. Yun is indeed worthy of being the top of this year's list. He looks so elegant and graceful, a rare talent. He and our young lady are definitely a perfect match." Matchmaker Wang flicked her handkerchief across Yun Jing's face. "Today, the one who wants to marry your family is one of the richest men in the city, the young lady of the Zheng family. She is so beautiful and has a good family background. This is a great event. Mr., please come with us."

After saying that, the steward beside him was ready to take action and pull Yun Jing towards the carriage.

Yun Jing immediately took the time to dodge and stepped forward to bow and apologize: "I am truly sorry. Forgive my rudeness. I have no intention of getting married right now. Please apologize to the Zheng family's master and mistress. My studies are the priority right now..."

"Young Master Yun, there's no need to be so polite. Marriage won't interfere with your studies. Once you're married, you'll be able to focus more on your studies. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?" Matchmaker Wang interrupted him and spoke loudly, "The Zheng family is one of the best. Their daughter has fallen for you. It's a lifetime of blessing. After your marriage, your family will be a qualitative improvement. Why don't you hurry and meet the Zheng family master and mistress?"

The servants behind him surrounded him and pressed down on his shoulders without caring whether he was willing or not, not allowing him to move at all.

All of this was seen by Wang Ze and Wang Ye who were standing nearby. They immediately rushed over and said, "You guys are so audacious! You dare to rob a man in broad daylight. You have absolutely no respect for the law. Get out of my way! Let Brother Yun go."

The butler gave the servants a look, and two of them came behind them calmly and grabbed the person and took him out.

Before leaving, he kicked each of them.

Wang Ze ignored the pain in his body and rushed forward again, shouting.

At the same time, Yun Jing was also struggling violently, but he was just a weak scholar and could not withstand the attack from the two servants.

He no longer cared about his easygoing attitude and cursed directly: "We are all new scholars this year, and we have also been recognized by the governor. You really can't force us like this. There is no sense of play at all. What's the difference between you and robbing a woman..."

But before he could finish his words, the manager, worried that the matter would get out of hand, knocked him unconscious and took him away.

"Today is a great day for our Zheng family. Everyone, beat the drums and gongs and blow the trumpets!"

Matchmaker Wang and Guan sang the same tune and then sent Yun Jing into the carriage.

A long line of people came over in a mighty procession, and left in a lively manner a short while later.

At the back of the carriage, Wang Ze and Wang Ye, supported by Lai Fu and Wang Gui, were trying their best to catch up, but less than half an hour later, he realized the problem. They were both powerless, and even if they caught up, they could not change the outcome.

The Zheng family is really too overbearing. They force others without considering their wishes.

The people around didn't see the specific plot and were still envious.

"I didn't expect that the top student is not only good at studying, but also good-looking. He was actually chosen by the Zheng family. He is really lucky."

"Who says it's not true? I heard that the Yun family is just an ordinary village family. As long as they marry Miss Zheng today, they will be completely transformed, like a wild chicken turning into a phoenix."

"Why not go over and join in the fun? Brother Yun looks elegant and handsome, and Miss Zheng is said to be a beautiful woman. The marriage between the top-ranked man and Miss Zheng sounds like a match made in heaven."

"Walk around..."
